Rapper Huey Mack was born Joseph Dalton Michael in Morgantown, West Virginia, getting into music and hip-hop production on a lark at age 14 and toying with the idea of music as a half-hearted hobby for most of his time in high school. By age 17, Mack began taking himself more seriously as an artist and eventually started releasing a series of free digital mixtapes. Wish Me Luck and A Boy Named Hue eventually gained a small following and Mack did some touring, which would eventually be reflected upon in the songs on his 2013 debut full-length Pretending Perfection. ~ Fred Thomas
